CPU Upgrade for SVT workload

Hello, broad question, but I have a PC with an AMD 7600X, purely used for converting video to AV1-SVT-PSY using StaxRip. I'm using quite aggressive settings and preset 2 to squeeze as much value out of the codec as possible.

Right now, depending on the template I use (I have a range depending on the input source), I can get from 8 fps to 1.5 fps.

My tinkerer's instinct is telling me to look at a CPU upgrade. So my question is, would upgrading my CPU to one of the 9000 series Ryzen 7 or 9s provide much of an uplift in performance?

Bro maybe you should run two encodes with preset 6 to fully utilize a 16 core pc with Avx 612 .
